Saoirse Ronan chatted with The Irish Independent yesterday about her involvement playing Melanie/Wanderer in The Host.

“It’s a given at this stage that romantic stories are going to be offered to me but I’m more interested in the story and characters. It’s just not important if there are love scenes in it…I have two different characters who are in love with different men…The good thing was that I got on so well with Max and Jake. I knew them both before we started filming and we were very comfortable working together.”
